Seven rose-breasted cockatoos found home in Feldman Ecopark. These Australian parrots were given to the Regional Landscape Park by a private owner, for whom it was an extra burden to take care of them. A couple of rose-breasted cockatoos have been living in Ecopark. The new ones were settled together with their congeners in the poultry-house.<\/p>\n
\u201cGalahs are very beautiful birds with a refined pink and grey coloration. Moreover, they are very peaceful, complaisant and affectionate. They\u2019ve already started to get used to our keepers and are always glad to see them. Their bright appearance and good character make these parrots very popular,\u201d Feldman Ecopark deputy director of zootechnic issues Valeriia Ivashchenko told.<\/p>\n
In their native Australia, the rose-breasted cockatoos inhabit all open zones of the country, savannahs and mountains, plains, meadows and open lawns, fields, town and parks. They live in small or large flocks. Galahs are 36-38 cm long, and weigh about 300-400g. In captivity, they live up to 50 years and breed rather well. They are trained easily. It is possible to release them to fly for a while, but they never fly away and always return. The rose-breasted cockatoos were brought to Europe in 1843.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
